Repel Mosquitoes and Other Insects |
Mosquitoes and flies are two insects that regularly breed around our homes and bother us, and they can even spread the disease. Whenever we notice them around our home, our first reaction is usually to keep them away. For this we use various harmful coils, medicines, sprays etc. But these are not harming us.
Did you know that there are some plants that can keep these insects away from your home?
They can also keep away other insects such as aphids, cochineals and caterpillars. The best part is that they are much healthier and odorless than natural and bug sprays!
These plants repel insects due to the essential oils present in them and give off a pleasant odor. In other words, planting rosemary or lavender in your garden will significantly reduce the appearance of these unwanted insects.
